Our Community

The events at the Millarville Racetrack, including the upcoming, much anticipated Millarville Christmas Market, are hosted by the Millarville Racing and Agricultural Society.   People have been working together around here for over 100 years to build community and have fun together.   We’re a non-profit governed by a board of volunteers,  so that means that your $10 at the gate helps to pay for the heat, the lights, the maintenance, the garbage, the septic, the water….quite frankly the place eats money for breakfast!   So thanks for your support and I really hope you have a great time!  

As we speak vendors are working furiously to have enough products for the weekend, to get their display and signs ready and make some money.   When you come here and shop you know that your hard earned dollars are going directly to other amazingly talented hard working people from right around here.    It keeps the money within our communities and our province for a few cycles longer than going directly to a large corporation.   I challenge you to become a localist;

Here’s a great clip that I first saw from my friend Tad Hargrave- who is part of a localist group in Edmonton.   http://www.thelocalgood.ca/inspiring-video-be-a-localist/

Check back everyday this week for more behind the scenes information and photos.
